...like what they saw. Chic Parisian housewives wiggled into the Renault's R-8 (the trade-up from the Dauphine) and squealed with delight at built-in vanity mirrors and soft new spongy seats. Men rocked the Morris 1100-an upgraded Mini Minor-to test its revolutionary liquid suspension system. Other members of the new line...
...thrifty Dutch are not about to spend their liquid gold recklessly. Shell and Esso have been shepherded into a shotgun marriage w?ith The Netherlands States Mines to market the gas. and De Pous. now-dubbed "The Sheik" by wags around The Hague, is laying down stringent marketing regulations. Present plans are to reserve about 25 billion cubic feet of it for "premium'' industrial use. including the fueling of projected new aluminum and ammonia plants, and to enable Dutch householders to convert to gas furnaces and stoves...
...actual experimentation, the electron beam will be aimed at a protonrich liquid hydrogen target. The electrons will be scattered as they emerge from the target. Scientists hope that close study of the scattering pattern may yield clues to the internal composition of the proton, which is no longer considered an indivisible particle but rather a composite of smaller bodies...
...side of the experimental hall, scientists have constructed one of the most important pieces of apparatus to be used in the C.E.A.'s experimental program: a liquid helium cryostat. This device will cool and liquify gases, principally hydrogen, for beam targets and bubble chambers. The bubble chambers are large jars of liquid hydrogen, and are used as tracking devices. Many short-lived, invisible particles leave a track of bubbles as they travel through the hydrogen. These tracks can be photographed and later studied...
...Because liquid hydrogen is dangerously explosive, the cryogenics room is explosion-proof and equipped with a fast ventilating system. The roof off the experimental hall is also designed for rapid ventilation to minimize the hazards of spilled hydrogen...
